He is probably very lucky that Katherine Ryan didn't take it further and seemed relaxed about it. Gorillaz and Slaves have done nothing wrong though, why should they miss out on daytime R1 airplay?

Annie played it this evening, so they haven't stopped playing it.

Well they haven’t playlisted it today, but considering both Grimmy and Annie played it yesterday, they’re not ignoring the song. I’m guessing it might get playlisted next week instead.

Was the first Mura Masa single with Slowthai still being played? It was only recently removed from the A List and they usually continue to play it for a bit!

I have only been listening to radio 1 for 2 years now and I absolutely love Greg James and Scott+Chris shows. For the two years of listening to Clara I have to say that I think nothing has changed and it just doesn’t meet the standard of other presenters. I only listen to about 30 mins of grimmy so can’t fully comment but I don’t think his show is anything special. BTW, it was interesting to read about bbc radio history on radiofidelity.com . Maybe would be interesting for other radio fans like me.

Lady Gaga is tune of the weekend!

Will Gaga be added to the playlist? :huh:

There's some big pop around at the moment which should be eligible for the playlist update tomorrow. Hopefully they will add a few from this list:

 

Harry Styles - Falling

Lady Gaga - Stupid Love

Selena Gomez - Feel Me

Taylor Swift - The Man

Coldplay - Champion Of The World

 

Plus possibly Aitch, Meduza, Lianne La Havas, Jessie Ware?

 

I'm not sure if there's much of note out tomorrow which would warrant an insta-add though.

Feel Me's not a single so they won't be adding that! The rest seem like surefire adds at some point soon though.

Oh isn't it? I thought it was a single to promote the album re-release? That's a shame if it's not though, I think it's my favourite thing she's put out this era.

apparently it's just a promo single and the real single is coming tomorrow.

'Feel Me' is a song that leaked years ago I believe, just finally been released ~for the fans~.

Could Aitch and AJ Tracey get an instant add?

Is it a proper single? So MICE isn't?

Where the feck's Momentary Bliss? They have no issue playing at night if Slowthai's awards ceremony behaviour is an issue. Surely anti-Albarn ageism if it doesn't make it, it's as raucous, catchy and R1 as heck! And features two young and strongly-supported R1 acts.

I'd be surprised if they didn't get insta-added

Instant A-Listed would you believe....

Still no new Coldplay single on radio 1 - have they dropped them for the first time in 20 years?

for what song? what is the new single? they seem to be releasing a new music video every 2 weeks, think we're on video #6 or #7 by now

they released the video for Champion of the World and Cry Cry Cry in Feb,

and yesterday they released the video for Trouble in Town

Yeah that's what I was thinking, except that Champion Of The World is on R2's playlist which suggests that's the current single
